It forces the usage of a "/media" directory, which could lock TDE to a specific set of distributions. I have not given that patch a closer look because of this potential issue.
...and to add to the previous response, I do not want you to include this patch in trinity. Not inluding this will make other developers possible to write a better HAL replacement once HAL is removed from their distributions (I believe among major distros only Ubuntu still keeps HAL? I may be wrong).
No, Ubuntu also removed HAL I understand. I think Trinity for newer Ubuntu's actually includes HAL itself for this reason.
My mistake. It's still in Ubuntu, just not in the default install. Trinity pulls it in from the Ubuntu repository.
I wonder if shipping HAL along with Trinity/KDE3 could be a temporary fix though.
